We do all the heavy lifting to create your listing. All you need to do is pay your first year fee and we can use pictures and info from your website. We can tweak the listing together.

The yearly (365 days) fee to be included and promoted on the website, printed material and social media is based on the property’s number of guest rooms or units, whether a link to the property’s website is included and the distance from the nearest Natchez Trace exit to the property’s location.

1. The more guest rooms/units you have the higher the base yearly fee. Base yearly fee ranges from $175 to $275.
2. Add $50 if a link to your property's website is included. Recommended if you have an extensive website and/or have online booking available from your website.
3. Subtract a Distance Discount. The further your property is away from the nearest Natchez Trace exit, the higher the discount. Places to Stay located close to the parkway will receive more exposure, website visits and guest inquiries/reservations than those located further from the parkway.

After determining the above three cost factors, the yearly fee ranges between $145 and $345. Fill out the inquiry form in the next section and we will calculate your yearly fee.
